STEP 2: Find a specialist

Eating disorder recovery is much easier when you have experienced, caring health professionals on your team. Begin by making an appointment with a licensed counselor. Your counselor will help you continue with steps 3 & 4.

STEP 3: Address health problems

Nothing is more important than your physical well-being. Even if you only occasionally fast, binge, or purge, there may be damage caused to your health, so it’s important to get a full medical evaluation.
